20:11:34 <Croberts> Thanks roshi
20:11:55 <Croberts> we have a ticket open with design about getting some pictures created that we can use
20:12:10 <Croberts> We also have badges for the magazine :)
20:12:18 <Croberts> suehle got those created for us
20:12:26 <mitzie> Sorry but I might have a problem with my system.. Does the magazine looks 4 months old?
20:12:37 <Croberts> it shouldnt
20:13:02 <mitzie> Because the last post is from last month
20:13:16 <Croberts> hmm
20:13:36 <roshi> front page last post was conduct reminder

20:15:50 <mribeirodantas> .fas mribeirodantas
20:15:51 <zodbot> mribeirodantas: mribeirodantas 'Marcel Ribeiro Dantas' <ribeirodantasdm@gmail.com>
20:15:56 <Croberts> we have a 2 new badges one for the magazine
20:16:01 <Croberts> let me get links
20:16:35 <Croberts> https://badges.fedoraproject.org/badge/extra!--extra!
20:17:00 <mitzie> ohh nice :)
20:17:06 <Croberts> i will have to find the other one
20:17:13 <mitzie> So they actually made the artwork (it is awesome by the way)
20:17:13 <Croberts> but we have badges :D
20:17:20 <Croberts> yes it looks really nice
20:17:26 <mitzie> Are they manually awarded?
20:17:35 <Croberts> yes they are
20:17:51 <Croberts> i will have to get one to you mitzie
20:17:59 <mribeirodantas> ahaha I liked the moto. Extra! Extra! :-) the icon looks beautiful too
20:18:03 <mitzie> ;)
20:18:27 <Croberts> hi mriberodantas
20:18:41 <mribeirodantas> Hi Chris! Nice to see you guys again :-)
20:18:51 <mribeirodantas> When I finally had the time, Freenode services weren't helping ehehe
20:18:53 <Croberts> We should have a beats email sent out soon I am helping Mitzie with that, we should have that by Tomorrow night
20:19:08 <Croberts> Hopefully we can get some more contributors
20:19:17 <mitzie> thanks croberts for the help on that
20:19:21 <Croberts> np Mitzie
20:19:28 <mribeirodantas> I told some local ambassadors about Fedora Magazine, but unfortunately the language is a barrier :-(
20:20:14 <mitzie> Also croberts about the badges rewards there are some people that actually have access to the badges tosend the badges? (or samthing similar I guess)?
20:20:37 <mitzie> <mribeirodantas> what do you mean?
20:21:05 <mribeirodantas> Well, some people are not skilled enough to make clear thoughs in English. Some people can't even establish a regular conversation
20:21:55 <mribeirodantas> So they can't write to it :/
20:21:57 <Croberts> mitzie: I believe so, i will have to get with threebean and he can award them manually
20:22:25 <mitzie> yeah, not all ambassadors know English, although it would be nice if some of them wrote some articles to the magazine
20:22:32 <mribeirodantas> It is true.
20:22:41 <mitzie> croberts I can bug him if you want
20:22:49 <Croberts> if you could mitzie
20:22:53 <Croberts> if you dont mind
20:23:07 <Croberts> wordpress should have a translator plugin we can test
20:23:15 <Croberts> that way they can write in their native language
20:23:18 <mitzie> croberts/ sure
20:23:24 <mribeirodantas> I haven't really followed the magazine close lately. Maybe the post I have in my blog could be of our interest for the Magazine
20:23:27 <mribeirodantas> http://mribeirodantas.livejournal.com/1232.html
20:23:29 <mribeirodantas> is it?
20:23:35 <mitzie> Why does the /name command doesn't work?
20:23:40 * mitzie is testing
20:24:00 <mitzie> it only does it with my nick
20:24:04 <mribeirodantas> :o
20:24:09 <mitzie> Was trying to do it with yours, croberts
20:24:26 <mitzie> <mribeirodantas> let me check
20:24:46 <Croberts> once i get the test system up we can try a few translator plugins
20:25:05 <mribeirodantas> Excuse-me, my IRC client went crazy. One irssi instance is connected twice O__O brb
20:25:57 <mitzie> I looks nice mribeirodantas, what do you guys think? I would say that we need content like this as well
20:26:03 <mitzie> *it
20:26:07 * mribeirodantas is back.
20:26:20 <mitzie> It looks nice mribeirodantas, what do you guys think? I would say that we need content like this as well
20:26:55 <mitzie> Also croberts did you removed the PressBack up plugin?
20:26:59 <Croberts> that is a nice post
20:27:01 <mribeirodantas> Dependingf on my work load, I'm available for translating pt-BR posts into English for Fedora Magazine. So if anyone sends something in Portuguese, let me know and if I'm not that much in trouble with work/university, I will translae it into English.
20:27:13 <Croberts> for the mean time yes, i will reinstall it here soon
20:27:38 <Croberts> wanted it for stability
20:27:39 <mitzie> I could do it no worries
20:27:51 <Croberts> ok
20:27:59 <mitzie> But I would say that it is necessary for every-day back ups
20:28:39 <Croberts> if you reinstall the plugin restart the instance of the magazine
20:28:46 <mitzie> ok
20:30:17 <mitzie> if I figure out how to get the real magazine ;)
20:30:25 <mitzie> and not the old month's
20:30:59 <roshi> haha, true
20:31:18 <Croberts> if not let me know and we can install it
20:31:34 <mitzie> I tried with my Win7 box and it is fine. Firefox must have an old version or something
20:31:47 <mitzie> Anyway- Anything else on the magazine?
20:32:04 <Croberts> not that i can think of
20:33:19 * roshi has nothing
20:33:19 <mitzie> #topic Open Floor
20:34:00 <mitzie> jzb went to FOSDEM, anyone else?
20:34:08 * mribeirodantas is unsure of what he should do regarding his blog post
20:34:11 <roshi> nope
20:34:28 <mribeirodantas> Do I post it? Should we discuss about it before, so that I can perform proper changes in order to fit better in the magazine purpose?
20:34:59 <Croberts> mriberiondtas, can you send it to marketing list and we could all look at it?
20:35:10 <mitzie> because a lot of people didn't make it to the meeting, would you like to send it to the list?
20:35:15 <Croberts> that way we can make sure it looks correct for the magazine
20:35:19 <mribeirodantas> Sure. I'll name the thread as "Proposal for posting in Fedora Magazine"
20:35:20 <mribeirodantas> Is it ok?
20:35:25 <mitzie> yeah, ure
20:35:27 <mitzie> *sure
20:36:05 <Croberts> sounds good
20:36:13 <mribeirodantas> Consider it done :-)
20:36:24 <mitzie> I would also like to suggest adding evere week an article from the planet to the magazine..
20:36:30 <mitzie> *every
20:36:38 <mribeirodantas> mitzie: +1
20:36:47 <roshi> yeah - I kinda let that one drop
20:36:54 * roshi apologizes
20:36:54 <mitzie> I'll send it to the list to discuss it further
20:37:05 <mitzie> oohh it was you?? Sorry!!
20:37:19 <Croberts> +1 mitzie
20:37:35 <roshi> when I first joined you marketing folks I suggested it, then never actually did it after people said "Yeah, that's good."
20:37:36 <Croberts> its ok roshi we can work on getting the process back up and running
20:37:47 <roshi> for sure
20:37:51 <Croberts> i know the site being down threw some issues there for a bit
20:37:56 <Croberts> +1 roshi
20:38:47 <mitzie> Ok, I'll send it to the list and people could make suggestions and involve in this
20:38:49 <Croberts> I will work on getting the badge reports typed up for the magazine site as well
20:38:53 <Croberts> awesome
20:39:51 <mribeirodantas> By the way, congratulations on your work with the magazine, Croberts.
20:40:03 <mribeirodantas> and you too mitzie!
20:40:32 <Croberts> Thank you mribeirodantas :)
20:40:36 <mitzie> Croberts I found the other badge you were talking about. The artwork is not done yet
20:40:40 <mitzie> #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-badges/ticket/152
20:40:43 <mribeirodantas> I haven't catched upo with everything, but whenever I stop to have a look, I see you guys doing something ahaha
20:41:33 <mitzie> thanks mribeirodantas, although croberts get it up and running in the xmas, which has a huge +
20:41:55 <mribeirodantas> Didn't you know? He's our Santa Claus :-D
20:41:59 <Croberts> :D
20:42:05 <mribeirodantas> What a gift! Fedora Magazine back :-)
20:42:12 <mitzie> ;)
20:42:28 <Croberts> thanks guys I appreciate the compliments
20:42:36 <Croberts> I am glad its back up and working
20:42:52 <mitzie> and the other badge is this https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-badges/ticket/151  - Sorry for the spam ;)
20:42:56 <mribeirodantas> :-)
20:43:23 <Croberts> and we have not really had any downtime lately, I am working on a script to have the magazine restart at low traffic times so each day we will have a fresh instance
20:43:45 <mitzie> sounds interesting :D
20:44:10 <roshi> do you have a gh or bb profile with the stuff you use for that Croberts ?
20:44:29 * mribeirodantas got curious on what gh/bb stands for
20:44:33 <mribeirodantas> gh sounds like GitHub.
20:44:37 <mribeirodantas> oh! BitBucket. Silly me
20:44:38 <Croberts> roshi no i dont but i can set one up for us if you would like
20:44:51 <roshi> you got it mribeirodantas
20:44:59 <roshi> sorry, I shorten things all the time
20:45:11 <roshi> just a thought - I don't know if we had enough stuff for it
20:45:14 <mribeirodantas> It's ok. Better knowing now, than when asked :-D
20:45:34 <roshi> :)
20:45:44 <Croberts> I can get one setup that way we have a copy of the openshift git repo
20:45:51 <roshi> that works
20:46:03 <Croberts> #action croberts to make a github page for magazine
20:46:09 <roshi> maybe do a magazine group (or organization, if that's what they call them)
20:46:43 <mitzie> magazine group?
20:47:34 <mitzie> Also croberts shouldn't we double check before making the repo in github? At the bottom it says all rights reserved
20:47:48 <mitzie> ;)
20:47:49 <roshi> github and bitbucket let you make groups or orgs that you can give people access to
20:48:13 <mitzie> thanks roshi, not a git master ;)
20:48:19 <roshi> fedoraqa lives on bitbucket for their stuff
20:48:29 <roshi> though they are looking for other solutions
20:48:39 <roshi> me either, but I'm working on it :)
20:49:41 <roshi> here's the QA team: https://bitbucket.org/fedoraqa
20:49:48 <roshi> in case you wanted to poke around
20:50:05 <Croberts> that works then :) we will setup a repo for the magazine
20:51:47 <mitzie> croberts did you read my comment on the repo ^ Shouldn't you double check before doing that?
20:52:54 <roshi> that's a fair point mitzie - but so much of our other stuff lives there I think it would be fine. but, I AM NO LEGAL COUNSEL :)
20:53:09 <mitzie> Neither am I ;)
20:53:15 * roshi just wanted to make sure the logs reflect that I'm not giving legal advice
20:53:27 <Croberts> i will check with legal and see what they suggest
20:53:53 <mitzie> croberts you can ask suehle, he write the post to the magazine about the copyrighted work
20:54:10 <Croberts> that works, i will send her an email
20:54:24 <mitzie> *she - sorry suehle
20:54:34 <mitzie> Anything else guys?
20:54:54 <roshi> I got nothing
20:56:16 <mitzie> Ok see you next Monday guys. I'll try to send a reminder the previous day
20:56:37 <mitzie> Thanks everyone for attending
